Andrew Klavan: The Truth and Beauty

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Klavan is the man.

....I Really Admire Andrew for his Honesty in Explaining how he came to encounter Lord 'Jesus 'and his Real Reverence and Tenderness while talking .....

....Jesus is telling how to be and Not what to do ,-Andrew Klavan

Bummer that SITC won't permit honest critique of Klavan's ideas

You guys are grasping onto the wrong thing you should grasp onto God not Jesus…

Stop fooling yourself nobody’s blood is going to pay for your sins worship God alone honor God alone serve God alone that’s the straight path

Does anybody know, Socrates not have a sense of humor too?

If it's not supernatural, it's nothing.

I’m amazed at your interruption we were listening to what he was saying, and you interrupted him in midsentence you’re very

its a war against male and female. they want us all androgenous and unable to reproduce.

“You can’t judge a persons soul’s position in relationship to God” -Andrew Klavan……

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, But is patient towards you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. End of 2 Peter 3:9
This scripture, in my simple estimation, (am not a scholar by any stretch of the imagination) is stating the fact that Jesus died for all, people,…….hmmmm do we agree that means humans on the right and on the left?!?

While we make discernment between good and evil, we should be careful not to judge or condemn. From Scripture, Matthew 7:1-5, I have gleaned It is for our own benefit. There is evil on both sides of the field, and it seems to me that Evil has consequences, and we should never deny someone the gifts that comes along with consequences. However when we condemn their souls we are under an illusion that we understand their soul and their relationship with The eternal God. I do not wish to be judged by anyone, and the Truth is I will be judged by God. I do believe that wisdom includes having discernment to know the difference between truth and lies and we should pray for Truth to prevail, God will do the rest. In the meantime we should be brave enough to look at our own shortcomings (easier to say shortcomings rather than evil) and truthfully deal with what is in ourselves that falls short of God’s plan for us. Unless we have no flaws. AK said this using different words.

By the way, I adore the incite into joy that Jesus, the Bible, and AK’s message offers. The question I frequently ask myself is, Am I willing to do the work? Get past the pain that the journey through forgiveness has to offer us? The reward is so great and the process for me has been long and painful at times. One day, a couple of decades ago, I realized that I must first stop judging myself and forgive myself in order to stop judging others.
Alert! This may take repetitive action as well as decades. I am 70, Decades! I Thank Jesus with all of my heart soul and mind for never giving up on me. His love truly endures forever!❤ 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼✝️ Thank you for this refreshing and authentic interview, it was difficult at times because of the corse joking, but I am still learning a thing or two, Peace of Christ 😊❤

I loved listening to your views on concentrating on avoiding sin versus concentrating on the goodness of God. Do you think that it can be both? Negative vs Positive Freedom (the Berlinian Guiness idea of it)

The interviewer talked way to much bye...

Andrew Klavan is the the best host on The Daily Wire.

Such a profound discussion. One of my favorites. Thank you for hosting Andrew Klavan.

Andrew has a brilliant mind. His link to sci-fi and the destruction of womanhood is profound.

I loved this interview for the light of Divine Love it shines upon creativity. If I may offer the following thought, hopefully in keeping with it: 

A mind whose imagination knew no bounds in tailoring such spectacles as 'The Taming of the Shrew'; who penned tales of truth and treachery, benevolence and betrayal, love and death, and death as sacrifice in honour of love; dualities within a state to tax even the greatest of truths, the likes of which the world will never bear witness to again.

A man whose mind sustained him; in whom the rhythm and texture of words found no other counterpart within the genre of his expression, neither before or after the advent of his being; not in any penned history, tragedy or comedy, neither poem nor varied part that saw his art adapted by way of experimental variance to the contemporary so as to appeal more simply to the herds that otherwise might not have heard his "teachings" for what they were.

Where it could well be argued that the canon of works comprising thirty-seven plays, two narrative poems and a collection of sonnets Shakespeare presented to the world "says it all", did not Jesus say it all too, but more precisely, and with no less poetry at play by way of The Sermon on the Mount, and has not The Sermon on the Mount stood the greater test of time?

Not that it can be held true, nor even refuted, for we will never surely know, but how much of Shakespeare's work, if we consider it in just proportion to the highest of ideals, could be aligned to the allure of such a sermon that might have served as serum for the sorrows of his own personal life, the death of his son in 1596, his father in 1601 and his mother seven years later in 1608, not to mention the approach of his own passing in 1616, the cause of which is not known ...

What frailties of the human experience does Shakespeare touch upon that Jesus did not to divine the way?

Against the arras that was to become the backdrop for all subsequent literary endeavours by poets and playwrights alike, being of expression the most ideal, let us now consider The Holy Scriptures, penned as they were so many centuries before, believed by the devout to be a matter of fact, and the "in doubt" a moment of mere fiction; how in light of love their provenance matters little but for the friction that is of this:

For any mind to imagine the coming of a Messiah; the presence of a divinity in human form, that such a form as was Jesus became The Christ who made the blind to see and the lame to walk; who removed illness and raised the dead but to be sacrificed for the sins of the world as was he so humbled before the face of humankind at its most cruel, and then to be resurrected, suggests that within the scribes who had not the inherent styling of speech as did Shakespeare, but whose servitude was such in purity to possibly surpass him - each purity of thought being a pause for thought - was the presence of The Divine, a consummate spirit that was itself both the creator and the creation of His Story: History.

How could they have been "imagined" otherwise?

How can you first imagine God without God first being present within you? How does any artist imagine their ideal, without that ideal first being present in his or her being, or is that where our humility draws the line, at any hint we should so honour the power that first bestowed upon us that by which we ourselves are honoured?

To that must then be considered this: how can you first imagine evil without evil first being present within you? How could even Shakespeare first imagine treachery without treachery first being present in him? But then, things can be consciously willed and that they be so willed does not imply one necessarily has the want to occasion them. Conversely, you do not have to be present in God for God to be present within you, and is that not the divine mercy of God, that his love is so to remain present and regardless?

It is that whatever tale you tell should adhere to the highest tenet of truth any legalism or casuistry can ever admit, the truth that saw jealousy kill Jesus.

And what about the music of Bach, a voice "not quite God" but near enough to at least make you want to believe in the Almighty, and at most exclaims : "I do!"

And for that matter, what of the matter that is of you?

If The Bible is the sum total of its contradictions, is that not Life? Is that not Love?

Is not the greater question one of acceptance?
Are we not all, as is Life and Love, the sum total of our contradictions?

Therefore, is not The Bible a testament of life and the treasury of love one's faith requires of it to be - whatever your belief - if in what you believe there is the presence of love? Why bother to debunk or even approve of it, after all, are we not ourselves the greatest piece of fiction before the reality that will be our fate?

To love your enemies is to not be like them as they appear to you in your life, an enemy to them!

Eternity is Time without borders, the entirety of our being. Eternity: Entirety

God bless both of them

I had no idea that Klavan was really somebody, I thought he was just a Daily Wire schmuck!

GREAT Interview about Truth and Beauty

Insanely fabulous interview. I'm Jain turned athiest from India. I still don't understand how can one go from atheist to being a person of faith again. For me, I'd need to erase all the logical bits of knowledge I know of physics, evolution, maths etc. from my brain.

I love this guy.

Yes an astonishing array of guests.

This is one of the BEST podcasts I’ve ever seen! I can’t wait to read that book!! I love Andrew and Eric!❤❤

Andrew, you have single handily revived my faith, especially in what I already believed. You have beautifully stated my own beliefs. Thank you. God bless you and your writings.🙏🏼✝️

Lol, when Andrew was telling about how wonderful his marriage is, and Eric said "yeah, my next marriage will be like this", I cracked up. I think this is legit one of the funnies impromptu jokes that I ever heard, because it is so rooted in life, how we tend to live in illusions even when we are in our older age

"Not that there's anything wrong with Marxism and murder..."

😂😂😂😂😂

A late reminder that Jeffrey Epstein and John McAfee didn't kill themselves

Andrew Klavan is literally a gift from God. His ideas, words and faith and the Joy he projects have changed my life…. For the better.

Wishing the interviewer would shut up and get the guest we came to hear on.

I am praying for Spencer. Really I am.

I might need to listen to this twice. Very deep for me. Loved it.

My goodness! Eric Metaxas is a wonderful bridge builder among people.

This is the only program I don’t fast forward the introduction. 😊

Brilliant! Enjoyed the discussion very much.

Excellent! Thank you!

more biden crap

How deeply deeply embarrassing.
You poor man.
And more to the point - your poor wife!

💥 Person NOT Philosophy 💥

'many of the things that Jesus said didn't make that much sense to me. So I decided to reinterpret his words through the lens of the four most decadent people in England'.
Yes of course, that makes perfect sense.

Dr.E.Michael Jones has written a great book called: THE DANGERS OF BEAUTY The Conflict Between Mimesis and Concupiscence. It's a great read and it covers more than these two guys ever could. Christ is King!

Andrew Klavan, Christ is King!

CHRIST IS KING!!! ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉

Klavan & Eric are exceptional talents.

Metaxes, far too long Intro-cut ghe weak jokes please.

Thank you Andrew. My soul rejoices. 😊

He loves Jesus so much. This is so inspiring
